@qdull thanks dude!

Time for my lifetime graph (since I reinstalled HEM2...)



$0.34 profit in 8000 hands. Ca-Ching baby! 0.21bb/100. Ohhhhh yeaahhhh....

Took me 4000 hands to work out how the HUD works.

Challenge update: Thoughts? Well, I guess I'm pretty demoralized at still being at 2NL 10 months later. I mean, that sucks. But. And it's a big but.. (and I like big butts; and I do not lie) but I feel like I've learned a lot about holdem and myself in general. I realized I'm not going to give up, I realized that I have BIG tilt issues, which I'm working on, and I also realized for the first time, I can beat this game. More updates to follow... will probably only update this 2/3 times a week rather than all the time. Thanks for reading guys.

thanks henton!

lost $5.70 on yesterdays session. lost 2 dollars on general downswing... got stacked with a flopped top set vs flopped straight... then the next 3.70 was bad calls due to tilt when i knew i was beat..... bummer..... maybe today will be better. well..after breaking even since i installed hem2 im a loser again. :-(

Hi guys, todays session was played I'd say close to perfect. I kept disciplined, didn't tilt and played with patience and thoughtfulness to each hand.

Played 1k hands only.

Only spots where I could have improved on today, were two terrible bluffs. Absolutely terrible. Look at what they did to todays graph:



Optimistic about the future. Still in 2NL.... Still dreaming the dream.

Also made a questionable nitty fold:

    Looking good so far. Regarding the nitty fold I think I would of opted for a cold call with you being on the button and in position for the rest of the hand (assuming no one would of shoved pre flop) although given the two blinds and the original raiser still would have to act a fold is a fair play I think but potentially -EV in the long run. Just my thought on it mate.

    Either way keep up the good work

    This.

    You can't fold QQ there, villain 3bet pf with what could of been literally anything and then you fold on the river after all 3 of you checked down. The only way you fold QQ there is if he shows you his hand and you are beat...

    It's full ring, when they 3bet it's always AA and KK.

    I am wondering why on earth he is even playing full ring 2nl??? Seriously. I would rather kill myself. If he can't even beat 2nl after this long, then poker is clearly not for him.

    I was reading some parts of you thread and stumbled on the 95o hand.

    Looking at that hand isolated, it's non sense the way you played, -EV on the long run. But with some background info, I would have done the basically the same preflop and flop, and don't know why people are whinning.

    This kind of line (3bet light preflop on BB/SB over a possible steal and Cbet flop) usually works for me 80% of the time. If a player has info on me, he could exploit it by raising light on the flop, but IMO I don't think much players would do that because I'm being very aggressive since pre flop and the pot is somewhat bigger, so a raise, in this limit, would NORMALLY tell me that the villain hit the flop.

    Every once in a while, a thread pops up that really makes me LOL in real life. Not because of it's wild ambitions, but because of the troll level of the posts by all within.

    BY ALL WITHIN.

    Played my best 1000 hand session yet. I made zero of my previous mistakes -- i'm sure I made other mistakes i'm not aware of, but I'll work on those leaks later.

    Graph:



    My last 8000 hands:



    Last 8000 hands is win rate of 14bb/100.

    Overall winrate since I installed HEM2: 2bb/100 and $5 profit. Lol:

    dont talk about your winrate and BB/100 you have a very small sample so it is irrelevant.
    you seem to be progressing but this could be a simple heater.

    Yeah I know it's a tiny sample size - Will only be meaningful after at least 100k hands.
